"apache server is used for web proxy redirection"
What do you like best about Apache HTTP Server Project?

It is easy to install it on your own machine and use it to learn and test many applications. It works It shines because of a large ecosystem of modules and a thriving community Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Apache has so many options that to configure everything is very complicated, and sometimes you need to spend much ours to get it good configured It's starting to show its age and isn't as performant as some of the more recent contenders I also dislike the configuration file syntax in comparison to nginx.

"Free and cross-platform web server."
What do you like best about Apache HTTP Server Project?

I like the security for transmitting information with SSL and TLS, it is open source, free, and cross-platform.

It adapts very well to computers with very low resources where you can easily have a web server or proxy and Linux distribution, all free and secure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Apache Server is the best free, stable, cross-platform web server system I know, but it is difficult to configure with so many code instructions we have to provide for its proper functioning. When the server fails, it is difficult to find the error with so many instructions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simply one of the best with multiple functions for your server"
What do you like best about Apache HTTP Server Project?

The software is really light, it is one of the things I like the most; It is also free with a series of tools to configure your server. It has many advantages to be open source, it can be modified as you see fit. It adapts to what I need, be it a domestic server or a large server with demands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Very little negative I found in this software, perhaps it is a bit difficult to configure, it really is a problem since there is no guide that allows user guidance. Also I could see that there are typographical errors in the error notification messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The most developer friendly server software"
What do you like best about Apache HTTP Server Project?

It provides the easiest and comfortable environment to serve an application. Most of the default configuration provided in the initial setup is enough for most of the deployment requirements. Further the modification of the configurations also require a small effort of modifying the centralized configuration file. It only demands a simple directory structure to render the user interface components compared to other server frameworks which require pretty complex and strict directory structure for development and user interface rendering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Feels like it lacks of some security measurement due to the provided increased flexibility to the developers. Providing a much easiest configuration environment leads to inappropriate and vulnerable deployment configurations. Also introduces a vulnerability to some unauthorized access to the deployment environment. Since it allows a much flexible directory structure for the deployment it is difficult to create a strong development architecture and maintaining the cleanness of the architecture. Developers tends to extend the architecture in an ugly way due to the given flexibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Apache for Internal Intranet Web Server"
What do you like best about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Solid http platform for intranet document distribution systems. This iteration of Apache is bundled with PHP, MySQL, MariaDB for Windows Server -- WAMP. It takes a few days to tweak httpd, and several .ini files for tuning, but once accomplished, Apache is a solid performer sitting atop Windows Server 2012 R2. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Numerous typographical errors, principally in error messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Your web page with Apache."
What do you like best about Apache HTTP Server Project?

I like Apache which is web service software, versatile, lightweight and free, open source, when someone wants to visit a website, enter a domain name in the address bar of your browser, then the server sends the files requested, acting as a virtual deliveryman. Easy to use and install. It has a number of tools to configure your server, it works on both Unix and Windows servers, you can use it on any operating system, it has many advantages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

I don't dislike anything, its use is perfect, excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Apache Server is an excellent tool to control and mount Web pages on your servers, with Apache you have a number of tools to configure your business or home server, what I like most is that Apache Server is Open Source and runs perfectly on Linux systems, where you can do anything you can imagine, I just love it.

You can configure multiple domains on a single server within a Local Network or over the Internet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache HTTP Server Project?

Apache Server is very complex to configure, it does not have a specific guide, which causes inexperienced users not to take full advantage of this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
